Lyrics

ALL THAT YOU ARE

Leave me alone, I?ve had a rough day
My woman done left me, or she just ran away
I go over the whole sad scene in my head
And my heart just breaks with the truth that she said,
?Boy, I was never yours anyway?

Can you believe in a love that rises above like the the sunshine?
Have I lost my mind?
It comes and it goes, it erodes, it explodes like a land mine
And it kills some time

Baby, all that you, all that you, all that you are
You?re my idle occupation, you?re my bright and shining star.
Baby, all that you, all that you, all that you are
You?re my eyes looking backward when I?ve come so far
That?s who you are
That?s who you are

Tell me again, those words so kind
Don?t go getting nervous, don?t change your mind
Freedom?s not all its cracked up to be
I?m as free as a bird and I live in misery
She said ?Boy, you?re problems don?t interest me?

I have heard its said when a dream?s put to bed its a closed door
Well I?m not so sure
Doors open again, this dream should end with a suture
No dream no more

Baby all that you, all that you, all that you are
You?re my hopeless situation, you?re my bright and shining star
Baby all that you, all that you, all that you are
You?re my study in frustration you?re the crashing of my car
That?s who you are
That?s who you are



My friends all laugh when I say
That I?m glad she?s gone
They?ve never seen a boy so eager
To give up everything he wants

Leave me alone, the day just got worse
She?s back in my arms just like we rehearsed
I lose my mind at the very first touch
I can stand up straight cause I found my crutch
She kisses me and says, ?Boy, you think too much.?

Baby all that you, all that you, all that you are
You?re my one and only angel, you?re my bright and shining star
Baby all that you, all that you, all that you are
You?re the one and only reason that my life?s so hard
That?s who you are
That?s who you are
That?s who we are
